Fireline #30 on Spinning gear works great after breaking it in. Pretty stiff right our of the box. Power Pro has done some wierd things...can fight a fish one minute then break for no apparent reason just stripping line by hand. Anybody know what's up with that?

Trying the Berkley Big Game 50# braid on 2 reels ... so far I like it alot ... Also trying 50# Cortland Master Braid on a conventional penn 980 for jiggs only .. Cast it all night ,, no problems .. Had to put a glove on because I put a groove in my thumb .. The only reason I had to do this was,, from burning the jigg in at end of drift,, so not to get caught on the edge ..

I found one of the problems about this with my friend its microwind Knots and i'm talking small.My buds line kept breaking and we could not figure it out for the longest time kept looking at the line close as can be and nothing.Took a while but he found one and he just gave it a tug and snap.PP cut itself very easily and these ever so tiny knots is what does it. |

I am using 20-50 Power Pro on some of my reels. I have used fireline, spiderwire stealth and a few others. It's power pro for now.
